The images a bed stocks are almost entirely the same bytes: the base they share
is 227 MB and a module's own code is a few. Exported one at a time that base is
written, pushed and loaded once per image — for this bed, the same 227 MB crossed
thirty-odd times, and the whole set measured 9.7 GB.
Measured on eight of them: 2.24 GB as separate archives, 0.29 GB as one. 87 per
cent less, and it improves with the count.
This is the slowest thing a raise does, and the four-machine bed has been
exceeding its own ninety-minute limit while still copying — so it was failing on
the clock rather than on anything it was testing.
Also stops shipping a compiler in every module image. The image runs compiled
code and never compiles any; tsc runs on the workstation. Worth 26 MB an image,
which is small beside the above but was pure waste.
Both image scripts copied the runtime's installed tree and relied on the sdk
inside it being a link into the sibling repository. That is true only where
somebody linked them by hand, and false as soon as the dependencies are
installed the ordinary way — which fetches the sdk as sources with nothing
compiled. The image still built, and every entry point in it pointed at
nothing.
test/integration/assigned-audit.test.ts raises a node into a mesh, assigns it
the audit-logger through the control plane, and asserts the mesh delivered a
scoped amqps account (not the broker's own), the host ran the container, and an
emitted event reached the trail — the delivered credential authenticating is
the proof. scenarios/audit-node.yml is the lean single-node bed that stocks the
runtime image. Passes 1/1 against the real lab.

Adds test/integration/events.test.ts: raises first-node (which raises the
broker as tier-1 substrate), runs the runtime+audit-logger against that
broker, emits a module and a node event, and asserts they reach the trail
with their metadata read back from ADR 0047 headers (a pure body), plus that
the durable per-consumer queue and mesh.events.dead exchange exist on the
raised broker — asked of the broker, not assumed.
scripts/build-runtime-image.sh builds the self-contained runtime image
(mesh-tools + vendored sdk + audit-logger) it runs, saved to a tar for
MESH_LAB_RUNTIME. The events path itself is verified; the incus raise is the
part a lab run exercises.
